My whole life I have loved makeup. I always feel best about myself when I have my make-up done, nails done, eyelashes, and a nice tan. I am one of the most confident people with and without makeup because I simply do not care what people think about me. However, I have those days where I want people to notice me and I want to look good so ill throw on my favorite makeup and a cute outfit. This summer I can finally get out of the house to do things and these are my top five go-to beauty products.

  1. Headband

This product saves you a lot of mess when it comes to doing your makeup, washing your face, or even going to bed. This headband holds your hair back when you're doing anything because it can be so annoying when your hair is getting in your face while doing your makeup or even washing your face.

2. Small Mirror

I know this one sounds a little like common sense but compact mirrors are essential during the summertime. You never know when your makeup starts running because of the heat. If you always keep a small mirror on you then, you won't have to worry about what you look like while you're out having fun. This is also important to have in case you need to apply more make-up throughout the day.

3. Lotion

When you're out and about in the sun your skin is bound to get dry. That is why lotion is very important to keep on you at all times. You don't want your knees and elbows to look dry or cracked so it is important to keep lotion on you at all times so you can be looking smooth and smelling fresh.

4. Lip Gloss

Along with having dry skin, dry lips can also be very unattractive. That is why keeping lip gloss and/or chapstick on me at all times is essential. I prefer a clear lip gloss or a sparkly one. If I do not have lip gloss I will always have chapstick in that case it is always Burts Bees brand.

5. Hair Clip

Last summer scrunchies were a big trend and this year they are out of style. If you want to be on-trend and also not have your hair on your face in the hot summer then you need to get a hair clip. They are very popular and stylish right now and will guarantee your hair out of your face just like a scrunchie would.
